It seems that we finally have a broadcast date for the 'Friends' reunion - and it comes from the horse's mouth.

Matthew Perry, who plays Chandler Bing on the hit sitcom, says fans can look forward to the reunion special in March 2021.

He tweeted: "'Friends' reunion being rescheduled for the beginning of March. Looks like we have a busy year coming up.

"And that's the way I like it!"

 

The reunion has been postponed a number of times.

The announcement for the TV special was back in February. Thus it will have been over a year between the announcement of the get-together and it actually happening.

All six main cast members - David Schwimmer (Ross Geller), Courteney Cox (Monica Geller), Lisa Kudrow (Phoebe Buffay), and Jennifer Aniston (Rachel Green) as well as Perry - announced it at the time.

Sharing a snap of the 'Friends' together, they wrote: "It's happening."

Perry had also been the first to tease it, tweeting shortly before the announcement "Big news coming..."

 

The reunion will be an unscripted special as opposed to a new episode.

'Friends' co-creators and executive producers Marta Kauffman and David Crane will also be involved.
